Well, back from the beach and into the heat! Called my neighbor last night and he came over this morning to turn our little window AC on - bless him!

A rarity with this heat in my part of the country is the relative humidity is pretty low - 33% right now. I've been out filling bird feeders and baths and watering plants. I must say that 100F with lower humidity doesn't feel nearly as nasty as what is more typical here - mid 90'sF with humidity up in the 70-90% range.

Hope all our friends in the greater Washington DC area have power to get through this heat after last night's wind storms.
